Hope for the best, prepare for the worst, expect the unexpected

About Me

Music is my religion and Jesus is my God. Throughout my life there have been many trials and tribulations. My mother and father divorced when I was young, my father suffered a brain injury, and my mother remarried a man who was very abusive both physically and verbally. Growing up in an environment of alcohol, abuse, and lies made it hard for me to believe in any kind of God. After crying to this God I heard about many times, with no reply, I decided that there was no God. I tried getting help from Christians but all I saw was hypocrisy and hatred. But in the month of November, 2001, my perspective changed. At 3:30 AM an angel appeared above my bed and all it said was "King of Kings." When I awoke the next morning I went on a walk and came upon a church, and it was Sunday. Was this coincidence? I walked into the church expecting hatred, but got a warm welcome. I felt the love of God for the first time in my life and accepted Christ. Five years later, after much study and prayer, I came into the Catholic Church. I am currently doing an industrial project and also preparing for youth ministry.
